Heavy is the head that wears the crown in the Netflix trailer for The Crown

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

The Crown focuses on Queen Elizabeth II as a 25-year-old newlywed faced with the daunting prospect of leading the world's most famous monarchy while forging a relationship with legendary Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill. The British Empire is in decline, the political world is in disarray, and a young woman takes the throne. Check out the trailer for the latest Netflix series, The Crown!

I love well-done melodrama that's superbly shot. Now that Downton Abbey is out of the picture (unless they follow through with a movie), The Crown looks like it's going to fill that niche to a T. The cinematography looks absolutely gorgeous and not even Matt Smith's ginormous head can distract me from how much Claire Foy looks like she's totally owning this role. Bring on The Crown!

The Crown will debut on Netflix on November 4th.
